- It is said that the actual battle was deployed in the battle of 1982, and the effectiveness was confirmed.
[About the model]
- Israel is a 1/72 scale plastic model assembly kit with Magafu 6 deployed with original remodeling based on American M60 tank as a base.
- The total length of the finish is 13.1 cm, the part number 150 points or more and model of the type wearing Magafu 6's blazer ERA, explosion reaction armor is modeled.
- A unique style like wearing armor produces a powerful finish.
- ERA modules accurately reproduce different sizes and shapes depending on installation location.
- Of course, the turret whose shape, the texture of the casting skin was also expressed was accurately modeled the style of Urdan Cupola adopted for the car length cupola.
- 105 mm Main gun barrel also expresses the shape fitted with thermal jacket.
- The body is composed of upper and lower parts.
- The lower part of the body is a mechanical finish including a suspension, a road wheel and a drive sprocket wheel.
- The crawler track is an assembly formula reproduced partly.
- Reproduce three-dimensional foot suspension. The tough style trained in actual battle is a powerful kit even on 1/72 scale.
